Here's a link to @[email protected]'s comment: https://lemmy.ml/comment/6075385
I wish Lemmy would make instance agnostic post and comment links. With the current system it's impossible, as every instance assigns its own number. Instead, links could be in the form
https://your instance/comment/number@hostinstance
The GitHub issue is here, you could put a thumbs up reaction on it, and also subscribe to the issue to get updates about it

Done. I hadn't seen that issue before, not that I really dig into github all that much.
However the issue is somewhat outdated. We do have instance agnostic links for communities and users now, and we have since I joined, which was less than 2 weeks after this issue was posted. We may need a new updated issue that focuses on posts and comments specifically.
